Since all of our barns, sheds, or carports are produced to order, each structure is pretty much built with the customer’s specific needs in mind. Basically, your barn, shed, or carport comes in 5’ length sections with base rails that should be properly anchored to whatever type surface the customer has or will have. Each “end” of the structure has a 6” overhang which adds one foot to the length. Some customers choose to put the entire overhang on one end resulting in a one foot overhang

Throughout time, wooden storage barns coated in a darkish red paint have been iconic images most people associate with the perfect, cute, little farm. Moreover, yes, long ago, when metal and steel were the more expensive material to use, wood was the correct choice. However, times have changed; today’s farmers now know the right choice are metal/steel barns and storage sheds. The price of wood has gone up in the last few years and so therefore, the option, which will be easier on the wallet and finances, is metal or steel.

So why would you choose a metal shed among all the other choices available on the market? We can name a few like Quality, Durability, Affordability, and those are just some of the reasons why a metal shed just makes sense.

Do you have Barn Shed Plans? The Barn Shed style is the perfect metal building for farms and country homes, and can add a cheery classic look when added to any home. Imagine all your outdoor clutter compiled into one organized space. Storage sheds will give you that extra space, and at the same time allow you to start parking your cars in the garage again.

If you own a house, at some point the need for extra storage space will soon become quite evident. Arguably the most common solution is to go out and purchase a storage shed from a local home improvement store, but quality usually suffers. There are hundreds of styles and options available when you shop online, but the iconic cherry red barn shed is arguably one of the most popular of them all.

In most cases, storage space is the key requirement a homeowner has, so figure out how much space is needed for you. A very small 4′ x 8′ lean-to style provides sufficient space for small tools, but larger items will of course require a lot more space. I strongly recommend choosing the largest size that you can comfortably afford, one that still blends in with your landscape and leaves yard space.

Is the shed going to play a prominent role in your day to day activities? If so, make sure that you choose a style and options that give you good access and provide adequate lighting. Windows and skylights provide plenty of natural light, but it is common to run electricity to the shed. For easy access, make sure that the doors are at least 34″ wide, as most lawn mowers will easily pass through.

This style consists of an A Frame as the center structure and two A frame style lean to’s on each side. The Barn Style leg height is standard 6′ leg height on the lean to’s and 10′ leg height on the center section. The Barn Style shed also offers the option of enclosing only portions of the building and is available as small as 32 ‘ wide up to a 48′ in width.

Metal and Steel buildings including barns, sheds and carports are becoming increasingly popular in today’s agricultural farming industry. Sturdy storage structures are a crucial and critical necessity of the farming business. Using metal structures have been growing in today’s trends due to the low prices, longevity of the materials, product itself and the durability of the materials during mother natures twists and turns.

Throughout time, wooden storage barns coated in a darkish red paint have been iconic images most people associate with the perfect, cute, little farm. Moreover, yes, long ago, when metal and steel were the more expensive material to use, wood was the correct choice. However, times have changed; today’s farmers now know the right choice are metal/steel barns and storage sheds. The price of wood has gone up in the last few years and so therefore, the option, which will be easier on the wallet and finances, is metal or steel.

Longevity, a describing word that lots of companies throw out there willie- nillie, but when using it to describe the metals to craft a steel storage shed or barn, it is not, it is true. The elements used to create steel today are leaps and bounds stronger than the materials used in earlier times. Metal storage structures and steel storage buildings can now withstand greater forces of heat, wind, fires and rains. The scientific progression made in the last decade or so has not only changed the steel but has also the revamped the composition of the paint now used to cover the outside of the metal. This new and improved paint is now tougher and can stay rust-proof longer. In addition, the painting process has changed, instead of being simply sprayed on; it is sprayed on and then baked on to insure its longevity.

Mother nature has been having a few good chuckles over the past few years at the Americans expense. She has been leaving a trail of destruction and broken homes in her wake while continuing to show her control. Because of the durability of the metal and the solid foundation in which it is laid upon, a steel barn or shed is less likely to be completely ripped to shreds, which in turn, cost you the farmer, less to replace, refurbish, or rebuild. Not to mention all of the wild fires that have been occurring in the United States make people iffy about purchasing a wooden barn because it will be the fastest to go up in flames.

So when it comes to renovating or just sprucing up the overall look and quality of your farm, go with the percentages, be one of the popular farmers that everyone envy’s. Go with a new metal or steel barn and storage shed. Your equipment, supplies, livestock and overall farming inventory will thank you. Choose metal/steel structures, it is the right choice.

Happy Farming!

Over the winter season, I had this great moment of reflection while enjoying some hot cocoa one bitter cold morning. I was thinking about the abuse the forces of nature have brought to my small family farm in the last several years. My wooden barns can’t withstand damages such as dry rot, broken boards, chipped paint, water damage, fires and more; not to mention the loss of equipment, hay, feed and other supplies. All of this is costing me up the wazoo to fix, replace and maintain. As a good farmer, I treat all the problems brought forth to me as quickly and proficiently as money, time and weather will let me but I am just getting sick and tired of doing it each and every year. So what could be my solution?

Eureka! I’ve got it! I went online, did some research and came across a great solution to my problem. Instead of mending my wooden structures each time something happens I should just reinvest in a more durable product. When looking at materials to construct a barn out of, I came across the new trend these days of switching from wood barns to metal and steel barns; this was already a plus to me because I wouldn’t have to worry about my old wooden barn that stores hay going up in flames as fast if there was a wildfire around my area. I was shocked as I read all the stories about how well other farmers’ steel barns were with standing the elements and how little maintenance they were to keep up. The upkeep of a wooden barn for just a few years would cost me about the same as an entirely new steel storage barn. I could not help but think about the time and money I would save yearly with not having to replace and fix things each time a heavy storm blew through town.

I searched some more on the world wide web and even spoke with some locals; they turned me to a place nearby with a great reputation, Barn Shed and Carport Direct. (BSCD) They are located near me in southern Georgia and can deliver and install quite quickly. I called them up and discussed with them the issues I was having with my old wooden barn and what hassles I was trying to alleviate. Then we discussed what and how I would be using my new barn and they even let me help design it. (Now I was really hooked!) In no time at all, we did some paperwork and the deal was done. About three or so weeks later, a team of men showed up, they leveled the ground, laid a sturdy foundation and professionally assembled my metal barn.

A month has come and gone and I have shuffled all my animals, feed, hay and equipment over to my new sturdy steel barn. And as I sit here today telling you about my journey into the metal world, a wicked thunder storm is passing through; a few months ago I would have been glued to window watching to see the damage it would bestow upon me, but not today, not anymore. So here is a special thanks to my new friends at Barn Shed and Carport Direct.

Product flexibility of your barn, shed, or carport is often misunderstood and can be a deciding factor for many customers. Due to the fact that all barns, sheds, or carports are produced to order, each structure is pretty much built with the customer’s specific needs in mind. Basically, your barn, shed, or carport comes in 5’ length sections with base rails that should be properly anchored to whatever type surface the customer has or will have. Each “end” of the structure has a 6” overhang which adds one foot to the length. Some customers choose to put the entire overhang on one end resulting in a one foot overhang.

Widths vary up to a 40’ clear span barn to a 12’ carport.

First……decide what your needs are in size, coverage and from there the flexibility begins. We can stretch or widen, lengthen, raise the height or lower the height depending on your peak height needs.

The type of structure will vary the type bow which affects the peak height. Whether it is a traditional bow or A Frame, we can provide you roof heights to ensure what you are trying to cover will actually go under the structure.

Color choices, trim choices, door choices…………specifically the location of windows and doors add to the flexibility of the product. Combo structures, which provide a combination of parking area and utility area, are one of the products that flexibility becomes very evident. The enclosed utility area can be 5’, 10’, 15’, or more depending on your needs and budget.

We offer 14 or 12 gauge posts, with the 12 gauge being slightly more expensive while providing an additional warranty. The standard or traditional roof treatment provides excellent coverage with the “veins” in the sheathing running horizontal and is very popular. An upgrade option from the A Frame style is the vertical roof option in which the “veins” in the sheathing are running from the peak of the roof vertically. A vertical roof comes with a ridge cap, some additional roof bracing, and is very appealing cosmetically.

Our regular factory direct pricing includes leg heights up to 12’ but if you need a barn, shed, or carport more than 12’ feet tall, call us……….We offer deluxe galvanized 2” x 3” tubing, welded corners, and 40’ wide clear span structures than can go up to 301’ long. We offer a barn, shed, or carport that can be certified up to a 120 mph wind rating and a 30 psf snow load. We even offer 40 year warranty pricing!

Dutch openings, insulation, skylights, wainscoting, interior liner panels, color matched screws are available making the structures even more flexible. In addition, we offer residential doors and oversize doors up to a 16’ x 12’ with remotes and electric motors.

So………whether it’s the smallest carport, a very large barn for the farm, or a shed for your stuff………. we have the building to fit your needs.

In addition to product flexibility, we also offer approved credit financing or no credit check rent to own programs. We are proudly American owned and operated.
